• Thursday, the national mobilization against the pension reform should disrupt many sectors of activity in the country.

  • In Hauts-de-France, public transport will be very impacted and it will be difficult to get around.

  • The biggest disturbances are expected on the TER network.

Thursday, the mobilization against the pension reform will be very followed throughout the national territory.

Hauts-de-France will not be outdone and, we are not going to lie to each other, getting around to work or to demonstrate is going to be very complicated.

Only teleworking or staggered hours can save you from wasting your day in transport.

On the side of the European metropolis of Lille (MEL), transport will roll, of course, but at a slower pace.

Or even not at all for certain bus lines.

This is the case for lines C10, C11 and CITL according to Ilévia.

On the urban network, the transport manager foresees “disturbances” with buses which will circulate with “modified frequencies” without further precision.

In the current state of forecasts, only suburban lines will run normally.

TER users, go your way

For the metro, the frequency of trains is reduced with a passage every two and a half minutes on line 1 and every three minutes on line 2. Worse still for trams, with a tram every twelve minutes on the common core and a tram every twenty-four minutes on the Roubaix and Tourcoing branches.



On the side of the SNCF, the trains maintained will be the exception which confirms the rule.

The main lines will be relatively spared since travelers will be able to count on the maintenance of one out of three TGVs, both on the Paris-Lille line and for the Ouigo trains.

On the other hand, it is the offer of regional trains which will melt and disturb even more travelers who are accustomed to the daily galleys.

But Thursday, it will be even worse, with an average of one TER maintained in ten.

You will only have the car to go to work, if however you are not afraid of traffic jams, and if the ice does not turn the roads into ice rinks.

A final argument that also applies to cyclists.
